I know I'm only borrowing it. I know I have to give Summer back to you. Just as you, have to give Winter, back to me.
And yet, you still find one thing to obsess over. One form not filled in. One call not returned.
Time never said
"Best you enjoy yourself now because we're going somewhere soon."
But that's what he meant.
You will become whatever you want to become. Even if you don’t know what that is.
All your work. All your play. None of it compares to one night spent next to the warm body of someone you love.
You need to learn this sooner rather than later.
The blackest night will fall and I will be gone like the sun. But in the darkness, you will find something more important than me. You will find yourself, deep in that ink. The sky will lift you up like the moon, to bring light to a landscape starved of it. And I will chase you and you will chase me, in the hope that one day we will find each other again.
And when that day comes, we will cast our light.
Together.
Do not be afraid to cry. Your tears are warm drops of light that remind you how to feel. Do not be afraid to laugh. That sound is the song of a world that loves. Do not be afraid to care. It is by caring that you do what must be done. Do not be afraid to stand out.
For, in your case, you have no choice in the matter. You will shine brighter than a thousand suns.
Do not be afraid.
You think you’re the only one who feels small. You think you’re the only one who isn’t sure what tomorrow might bring. You think you’re the only one who’s scared the world might eat them.
We suffer together and hold each other tight because when we touch each other, we know.
You are never alone. Ever.
Look outside. The entire world is waiting for you.
